The machines are literally around ten feet from the Strip entrance, and the hotel rooms are just a short walk through the casino from there.

On top of that, the casino floor and hotel are the closest accommodations you can have to the Strip without sleeping on a bus bench. The hotel/casino occupies some great Strip frontage, right in-between Harrah’s and the Venetian, and directly across from the Mirage. In fact, that’s one of the great appeals to staying and/or playing at Casino Royale: it’s close and convenient north center-Strip location. The rooms are nothing fancy, and can be noisy, due to the fact the hotel is so close to the Strip. It has 152 rooms, (“newly remodeled,” says the website), on four floors. The Casino Royale is part of the Best Western hotel chain, so that probably tells you something right there. For while the Arias and Cosmopolitans take over Las Vegas with $25 minimum table games and $300 room rates, Casino Royale, (with its $5 craps tables and $3 beers) offers a welcome reprieve from the increasingly expensive Las Vegas Strip scene.

Since the closing of the old O’Sheas a few years back (a new, less colorful O’Sheas has since taken its place), Casino Royale stands as one of the last “low rent” joints on the Las Vegas Strip.Ĭasino Royale is different than any other casino on the Strip.
